Pluto, who was stabbed by Bella, backed away silently.After dinner, he brought Bella her dress.It was a black robe with gorgeous patterns, which was three points more gorgeous than the mage's robe, and a bit more beautiful and simple than the priest's robe.Bella felt that the style of this dress was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before. She presumably was similar to the beauties in the world who had a three-point similarity. The beautiful clothes must have something in common.

Bella's outfit stunned the audience.Kevin was even more amazed. In the past, he only thought that a girl in a white dress with long black hair was the most beautiful. He never thought that a girl in a robe could be so attractive.These words happened to be heard by Donna.Therefore, Kevin participated in the sacrificial ceremony wearing powder, regardless of the reason.

Bella and others who brought the hope of survival to Water Town were regarded as angels, and when they were sacrificed, their position should have been in front of the statue.Bella rejects people's "kindness".In front of the gods, how can human beings stand?During the whole sacrifice, people were kneeling.Bella originally planned to show her face and leave, to prove that she participated, and when others asked, she just said that she was in a secluded place.Whether this place is big or small, is there anyone who can see all the secluded corners?If you are in front of the statue, you have to kneel firmly for the whole journey.

People outside worship the gods under the sun.Bella had already returned to her room.She took off the gorgeous dress and threw it aside.That thing, beautiful as it is, is too procrastinating for action.

Strange to say, Pluto, who was usually very obsessed with the gods, ignored Bella's "leaving early" and did not raise any objections.He even skipped the sacrifice with Bella.

The rituals of the gods have always been lengthy, at least a whole day.Bella, who skipped the sacrifice, has a long time and can arrange it at will.Of course, you can't go out, let alone be discovered.After reading for a while, she felt her eyes were sore, so she put it down, stood at the window, and looked out.

Despite the water, the air here is dry and the wind is uncomfortable in the face.Bella stood at the window for a while, and was about to go back, but was attracted by the strangeness on the street corner, and stopped in her tracks.

"What happened, Pluto?" Bella asked.The place where the incident happened is still some distance away.If she wanted to know what happened, she had to cast a spell to investigate.The senses of high-level monsters have always been sharp, and he should be able to hear them directly at this distance.

Just as Pluto was about to answer, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Kevin walked in panting.He said, "You really are here... hurry up!"

"What's wrong?" Bella asked.

"It's too late, let's leave first, let's talk as we walk." Kevin said anxiously.

"What else could threaten us here?" Bella raised her eyebrows.

"You can't do anything to those people." Kevin stepped forward, wanting Labela, but was avoided.

"What?" Bella turned around and asked while packing things in a leisurely manner.

Kevin took a deep breath and said, "During the sacrifice, an oracle came down, saying... saying that you are a blasphemer, and your 'faucets' are ominous objects, and they are smashing them... There are still people who want to Come to catch you, there is already a lot of firewood piled up before the temple."

"What good is this for the temple?" Bella asked with a sneer.

"It's not the temple... I can feel the coercion." Kevin said.

"So their gods don't save people themselves, so they don't allow others to save them?" Bella said coldly, "What about the others?"

"Those people are already crazy, Donna...she's waiting outside the town..." Kevin was silent for a moment, then stammered, "Lambert is a priest, it's impossible to disobey...God, Kelly, he...that is after all The gods he worshiped for generations..."

"That is to say, they agreed to burn me?" Bella asked, narrowing her eyes.

"They...don't pay attention to them now...I'll beat them up for you in the future!" Kevin was also very angry that he wanted to burn his companions to death in order to break the oracle.However, what should be done now is not to intensify the conflict, but to leave here.

Bella saluted and tightened the space equipment, and said coldly, "This is the god! This is the devout believer! Let's go. This account will be settled later!"

"Beat Kelly and Lambert?" Kevin said.

Bella raised the corners of her lips, revealing an evil smile.Thinking that she seemed to be very interested in God at the beginning, Kevin shivered—couldn’t this guy want to trouble God?Is it too late to sever ties now?

Kevin and Bella were not slow on their feet, and they quickly left the town and came to the woods outside the town.It's called the woods, but it doesn't look like a woods should.The sudden drought caused the trees growing in the humid area to die, and the bark was stripped off by hungry people. The branches became firewood, leaving only bare wooden stakes standing on the ground.

Throughout the whole process, Pluto has been by Bella's side, surprisingly silent.

Kevin turned around, but he didn't see Donna.He frowned and said, "It's clear that we agreed to meet here, where did she go?" Kevin let go of his voice, yelled twice, but still couldn't find Donna.His face was full of anxiety, and he said, "Is something wrong?" He was worried for no reason. After all, they were all companions of the blasphemers. Unlike Kelly, Donna was a native of this place. The people here are friendly, unlike Lambert, who, as the priest of the God of Light, turned back immediately.Who knows if those crazy people will get angry with her.Such worries made Kevin want to go back to her.

"She's here." Bella frowned and said, "It's not just her."

"What?" Kevin asked puzzled.

At this moment, there was a sound, it was the sound of footsteps, the footsteps of many people.

"Did they catch Donna?!" Kevin said angrily.He followed the sound and walked over.Sure enough, he saw Donna, but she wasn't tied up.Along with them, Lambert and Kelly, as well as a large group of small town residents.In an instant, he understood something.

Unwilling to believe that he was betrayed by his own woman, Kevin asked with a glimmer of hope, "What did they do to you, Donna?"

Donna looked at Kevin apologetically, and the latter was extremely chilled by the apologetic look in his eyes.At this time, Bella and Pluto also came over.Donna closed her eyes fiercely, and when she opened them again, there was no guilt left.She said, "Sure enough, you went to find them."

"So you brought them here?" Kevin's tone became very cold.

"It's not good to hang out with blasphemers." Donna said earnestly, "Come back, Kevin, honey, you were deceived, and we are all deceived. God will forgive us."

"So you chose to betray?" Kevin asked.

"That's not betrayal, it's abandoning the dark and turning to the bright, it's returning from the wrong path." Lambert said loudly.

"It's not for you to talk, you bastard!" Kevin said mockingly, "Oh, yes, there is another one, ungrateful and stupid, what do you say?"

Kelly clenched his fists and said, "I...I'm sorry, you...that will only offend the gods and bring about even greater disasters..."

"And you! You people who are waiting to die! If we hadn't brought water, you would have died of thirst!" Kevin glanced at the people who were gradually approaching.There was no guilt on the faces of those people, only fanatical devotion to the gods and hatred of blasphemers.

"There's no need to say any more, they've been deprived of the ability to think long ago, and that's the saddest thing." Bella sneered, curling the corners of her lips.

"Shut up! It's all your fault! If it wasn't for you..." Donna suddenly cried.She really loves Kevin, but now, Kevin looks at her so coldly.It wasn't like this before!All of this is the fault of the blasphemer!

"You fucking shut up! There's no place for you to talk here!" Kevin said viciously.

Donna covered her mouth and sobbed softly.

"Give it up, blasphemer!" someone shouted.Such cries gradually became louder and louder, and finally everyone shouted: Burn the blasphemers!

Both sides are ready for battle.At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed as a priest ran over and shouted: "Stop!" Before the disaster struck, he was not unable to walk, but he wanted to guard the temple.Now, he's one of the few who can run.

This man obviously has a very high status.Everyone quieted down, waiting for the command of the venerable priest.

The priest took a few breaths and said, "There is a new oracle... This lady is not a blasphemer... She is a person favored by the gods..." A person favored by the gods is someone who is specially favored by the gods.The difference between him and an envoy is that an envoy has a mission entrusted by the gods, while a person favored by the gods does not have to do anything, only to enjoy the favor of the gods.

The crowd was in an uproar.

The priest came in front of Bella and said with great panic that it was just a misunderstanding before and invited her to the temple as a guest.Bella declined.Kevin spoke even more impolitely.Others are very anxious.The gods have not stopped God's punishment, they need the people favored by the gods to ask for forgiveness for them, instead of letting the people favored by the gods leave in anger and make the gods even more angry.

Kelly faced Bella and the others with no face, and stood aside without saying a word.Lambert tried hard to persuade.In his view, following the instructions of the gods is innocent, and neither the country nor the individual should be blamed.Instead, Bella and others should go to the temple, kneel in front of God, and thank God for his kindness.This is also what other people think, and it is also the reason why they dare to ask Bella to calm the anger of the gods for them after doing such a thing.

Bella was unmoved.She is not a self-sacrificing Lei Feng, let alone a masquerade. It would be good if she didn't retaliate against these people, but is she going to be a cow or a horse for them?

In the end, it was Donna who took the lead, and everyone knelt down in front of Bella, and only then did the cold-hearted man of God's favor be moved.As a woman who depends on a man and has found him, Donna can't afford to lose Kevin.Kevin was really impressed.Despite the disappointment, he did like that woman after all.He couldn't bear to see him so humble.Because of his intolerance, Bella agrees to stay temporarily.She doesn't go to the shrine, though, and just stays where she used to live.

Bella lived in Water Town for another two days. During these two days, she only stayed in the room and refused to go out.That middle-aged priest had come to invite Bella to the temple that day.He made a lot of noise and disturbed Kevin next door.This irascible boy who was broken in love angrily threw the priest out—this guy was the one who made people burn at the stake in the first place.

Others from the town had been there as well.They destroyed a lot of "ominous things" that day, and only three or two "faucets" were still working normally in the whole town.Running out of water, they asked Bella to help fix the ones that were broken.Of course, these people still didn't get what they wanted.Bella asked herself that she was not their servant, let alone a wishing tree, Santa Claus.They should be responsible for their own choices, or ask their gods.

For the past two days, Donna has been pestering Kevin.She doesn't feel that she has made any mistakes, she is acting according to the instructions of the gods, isn't she?She loves Kevin so much, and Kevin loves her too.Now, the blasphemer has become a person of the gods, and the contradiction no longer exists.She believed that she could bring Kevin back to her side.However, she was doomed to be disappointed.Whether she is acting coquettishly, being petty and gentle, or being promiscuous and charming, Kevin is unmoved.A woman can have a temper, have her own ideas, and her own career, but she has crossed Kevin's bottom line.Kevin clearly realized that the most important thing for this woman is always God.And her god is not a god made up by human beings, who guides people to be good and gives sustenance in the spiritual field, but a god who treats human beings as playthings based on his own likes and dislikes.My own woman has a "master" in her heart, and no matter how good she is to her, as long as the "master" orders, she can do anything, even kill her man.Which man can accept it?

Kevin couldn't accept such a "belonging" woman.
